First, I must state this...
Some of the answers I may be seeking in this request MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED in the "Ambient Micing" thread. However, that place got ugly as I read farther and farther down, and I really don't possess the patience it requires to weed through the muck for the answers I'm seeking. I figured I'd start my own thread.
I'm VERY new to recording when it comes to equipment capabilities. I just purchased a TASCAM DP01FX, a pretty decent (to me) digital recorder that only offers two inputs to record with at any one time. I like what I'm doing at home by myself so far, and I'm very interested in recording my jazz duo and trio. Recording the duo doesn't seem to be that challenging at the moment, Rs I could either mic both the bass and guitar amps or record them direct.
Recording the trio live requires knowledge of microphones, and I honestly have no idea what to use. Now, I did hit the FAQ section on microphones...learned some differences in some mics, but I'm looking for input. I reckon I could use an 8 channel mixer and more microphones, but I'd like to try JUST micing the room.
I couldn't have asked a better group of people, and I look forward to hearing your answers.
Thanks,
jimbo
